Rock in the nude

[Allyn T]

Went to my new super secret spot to see if they had started digging more, I was only going to scout I swear! I came home riding low though...hanging my head in shame of my addiction to collecting knapping rock

[bjrogg]

I bet you were riding low. Your tires were probably rubbing your wheel wells.lol

Nice haul

[Allyn T]

Lol you should have seen my wife's face when I told her I brought more home. I had to promise to give some away

[gutpile]

lol I would be the same way brother if I had a cash of knappable stone around.. gut

...hanging my head in shame of my addiction to collecting knapping rock

at the pick of my addiction I made 80km by bicycle just to collect a few pounds of stone
perseverance of the nuts rules the world 

nice rocks you got there.

[Allyn T]

Gut I'd be more than happy to send some rock your way I have a ton. Glis I guess it's better than other addictions we could have. It's funny because even though I have plenty every time I see a straight rock on the ground I want to check and see if it's any good

[Parnell]

Wow!  Are you spalling and treating rock, Allyn?

[Allyn T]

Parnell I do spall it but I'm starting to collect so much i might start storing it in the round outside. I'm running out of room in my basement. I haven't heated anything yet but I just bought a turkey roaster for 15 bucks. I don't really mind tougher stone as long as flakes run but I do have some stuff that has chalky spots or hard crystal pockets and I do want to try to heat some of that and see if I can make it better but this harvester is really nice it's super sharp and glassy in the raw form.

[gutpile]

I sure would give it a try.. of course I would pay you for it.. gut

[Allyn T]

Gut send me your address and I'll send you some to try. What sizes do you want?

[gutpile]

 

[ssrhythm]

Dood.  If you want to sell any of what your collecting, I’ll pay you, come pick it up, and buy you a steak if you happen to be somewhere between Wyoming and SC.  That is killer!

[Allyn T]

Well I am in Missouri so if you're ever traveling through you can have some.

[bjrogg]

I really need to get down there sometime. Got some good friends not far from you.

Been saying that for years already though.

[Allyn T]

Yeah it's hard to get away but if you come down this way let me know
